A Craze for Ivory Miniatures.

A young French artist in town is at
present supplying society with ivory min
iatures, and although they come exceed
ingly high he is scarcely able to keep up
with the demand. Painting on ivory, If
not n lost art, was until the present re
viyal almost n forgotten one. Such work
requires exact taste, abundant patience
and peculiar skill. The skill and the
knowledge Of the art required Of course
died away with the falling of of a de
mand for the kind of work in question
The cheapness and apparent value and
pernanency of photographs struck a fatal
blow at The one time popularity Of ivory
miniatures. But with the lapse Of years
il has heen found that photographs are
not permanent records, and people, be
sides have more money and more taste
than when photographs took first place in
their affections. The transparency and
beauty Of these miniatures are delight
TO the eye, but the commonplace buyer
with the commonplace pocketbook is
rather staggered with the information
that "a miniature three or four inches
square costs $500 10 500. The artist re-

and neighbors said or hinted that these
women had sharp tongues in their
head. Mr.. Jordan eventually discovered
that these peculisrities in connection with
q shrewish character were not confined IN
one sex, and he classes men and women
under the two heads Of 'shrews aud non
shrews"
Mr.. Jordan lays some stress on the
fact that in shrewish men and women the
skin is clear, transparent and pigment
less, often accompanying very pretty
features. The nails are inclined TO be
thin and weak. easily bent or torn, the
hair thin and scanty, the eyebrows
especially being poor and uneven. That
marriages should ever be arranged by
